What to Know Before You Getaway to Homochitto
A few months ago, I told a friend that I just wanted to run away, lie in bed, read books, and cry for a few days, and he sent me a link to the most perfect Getaway…
Let me tell you, if you just need to run away for a little bit, Getaway New Orleans (Homochitto) is an easy and quick escape from your southeastern Louisiana life.

It's that time of year again, road trips, vacations, family trips. I mean, honestly, is it ever NOT that time of year? Not for us! We're road trip-aholics. Currently, I have a 9yo, 5yo, and a 3yo, but we've been road tripping since my eldest was four weeks (when we drove to Houston). We've trekked all over: Atlanta, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Houston, Nashville, Natchitoches, just to name a few.
Here's a little bit about us, we don't do devices. This isn't a judgment if you do, I promise! We just don't, and I only tell...

Get Away to Gulfport :: A Fun Filled Family Vacation to The Oasis
After a complicated beach trip to the Florida panhandle early in the summer, we decided to try another family trip...
We survived the beach with 4 kids. Alone. It was a challenge but we conquered. Ages 5,3,1, and 8months. We wanted a change of scenery and Labor Day weekend was the weekend to do it! I have read so many different lists about what to bring to the beach to be prepared and so I thought I would drop a few items that we used to help with our successful trip.
1) Beach Wagon - I recommend getting two. One for kids to ride and one to hold all of your beach bags and beach items. they fold up easily and don't take up too much space. Can use as a bed for naps too. Pro tip: Big Wheels for...
